WHEREAS Complaint hath been made unto Us, two

London and Liberties thereof, one being of the Quorum, by
the Church-Wardens and Overseers of the Poor of the said
Parish of Saint Botolph Aldersgate

lately come to reside in their said Parish, not having obtain'd
any legal Settlement there, and is likely to become charge-
able thereto, unless timely prevented, which Complaint We
the said Justices, upon due Proof made thereof, as well upon
the Oath of the said Martha Adderley< no role > as otherwise, do
adjudge to be true; and We do also adjudge the last legal
Settlement of the said Martha Adderley< no role >

to be in the said Parish of Saint Swithin

These are therefore in his Majesty's Name to will and re-
quire you the Church-Wardens and Overseers of the Poor of
the said Parish of Saint Botolph Aldersgate
London, forthwith to remove and convey the said Martha
Adderley

vide for her according to Law. Given under our Hands
